CVA OPTIMA ELITE

I wonder if you can put one of the new centerfire barrels on the old optima muzzleloader frame. Mine was a magnum that you could shoot the max loads in. Anybody know?

Nope, the Optima frame isn't made to stand cartridge pressures and a breech loading barrel won't fit for that exact reason, so someone doesn't try it and seriously hurt them self!!! ::)
